VOTE for the worst company of the year 2011!
VOTE for FOXCONN! [by midnight on the 27th Jan 2011]
At least 18 workers committed suicide at Foxconn in 2010. They were internal migrants from the countryside in the 17 to 25 age group.
In the 21st century China, India, Mexico and other countries, Foxconn workers have “nothing to lose but their chains” (Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, 1848, The Communist Manifesto). Click to vote now!
Foxconn workers are forced to work overtime on a regular basis at minimum wages. The only labor representation permitted is the company “union.” Under public pressure, Foxconn promised to increase wages with effective 1 June 2010. However, research shows that the working conditions have not improved. Worse still, students from vocational schools are sent to Foxconn production facilities in the name of internship. Let’s support struggling Foxconn workers!
